here is a irridecent anemone

5h3r1N, I don't mean to be an alarmist, but that anemone is awfully white. How long have you had it? I'm afraid it may be bleached and in need of a lot of TLC very quickly--no photosynthetic anemone should be that white and translucent.

 

[5h3rW1N]

its an old picture. its actually under VHO's it lasted under a year. but stayed the same coloration.

here is another anemone i attached with a maroon clown.

I'm not criticizing you personally, but the second anemone is also terribly bleached. Clownfish-hosting anemones are partially photosynthetic and a healthy one will never look translucent and white like that one.

Please post a thread about this anemone--with pictures--so you can get some advice from experienced anemone-keepers on this forum, because at this point it's not looking good. There are people on this forum who have brought anemones back from bad shape, but it takes pristine conditions and a lot of expertise. I know you care about your animals, so I'm only saying this to encourage you to find out what you need in order to keep them healthy (and alive for much longer than one year).

Here's my 'red' Haddoni:

It's not happy in the pic but it's burrowed now.

I didn't see the Skunk at first! Just bought a Hatian Pinki Tipped Anemonie, I'll post pics when it is settled.

Just to keep it diverse, here's a pic of my Actinia bermudensis

And to prove that an anemone doesn't have to be expensive to be cool, one of my Epicystis crucifer or Flower Anemones.

At least the Periclemenes thinks it's cool.

Color morphs of both the Epicystis and the Actinia

I'm not sure what this one is, possibly a Calliactis tricolor or hermit crab anemone, but it lost it's crab and had a shrimp move in.

The LTA has been in my tank for about 3 months now.

Any clue as to what these might be?

In the wild.

And spawning in my tank

 

[velvetelvis]

Some kind of rock anemone? I've seen similar-looking ones from Florida.

My Haddonis,

The above with porcelain crab,

And my newest one,

Yardboy, VERY nice anemones!

Everyone else, you have very nice anemones, too (I didn't want to show any favoritism )
